Here's the full Eastern Conference All-Stars starting lineup.

  • Derrick Rose, Chicago Bulls
  • Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat
  • LeBron James, Miami Heat
  • Carmelo Anthony, New York Knicks
  • Dwight Howard, Orlando Magic

Here's the full Western Conference All-Stars starting lineup.

  • Kobe Bryant, L.A. Lakers
  • Chris Paul, L.A. Clippers
  • Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder
  • Blake Griffin, L.A. Clippers
  • Andrew Bynum, L.A. Lakers

Coaches will pick two guards, two forwards, one center and two wild card players. The reserves will be announced on February 9.
